SCM's Mission
"The
Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because the Lord
has anointed me, to bring good news to the afflicted;
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim
liberty to captives, and freedom to prisoners;
to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord."
Isaiah 61: 1-2
Faith Statement
Directive Four - What we believe.
We
base the foundation of our beliefs upon
the inspired
word of God found in the Holy Bible,
and our life experiences with Jesus Christ.
We
believe in the life, death and resurrection
of
Jesus of Nazareth; Who is the Christ, the Messiah
who was predicted, defined, quoted and glorified
by
His own creations - the universe, humankind,
the
Holy Bible and all that exists.We
believe we are
called by Jesus to try to become more like Him
in this
life by following His examples.
Through faith, obedience
and love, empowered by
His Holy Spirit, we want to be
"
Christians According to Jesus," to the glory of God the
Father.
Living
by hope in the Gospel of Jesus Christ, we
believe He is with us today and will accomplish all that
He said He will do in the Old and New Testaments. We
wait expectantly for His final return in service to Him.
"For
God so loved the world that He gave His
only begotten Son,
that
whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
For
God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world,
but that the world should be saved through Him."
John
3:16-17
